Comments on: How is the CCIE Lab Graded? http://blog.internetworkexpert.com/2008/02/18/74/ Helping you become a Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert Fri, 05 Sep 2008 15:12:38 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: bitbucket http://blog.internetworkexpert.com/2008/02/18/74/#comment-427 bitbucket Thu, 21 Feb 2008 18:53:47 +0000 http://blog.internetworkexpert.com/2008/02/18/74/#comment-427 Based on my own experience with the R&S lab at San Jose, I've seen VNC sessions of all the candidates open on the proctor's monitor. Whether or not they are grading you as you go along through the exam may be left for interpretation. As my lab day was wrapping up, the proctor posted the estimated times when the exams would be graded. The oddest part about it was that he had written 2 columns with our names under them. Out of the 6 R&S candidates, 5 were in column 1 and mine in column 2. Since my name was set apart from everyone else, I was extremely worried at this point. This could either mean I passed, failed, or my answers needed more analysis. Judging by my end result of passing, I can only think that the proctors knew that I had achieved the 80 points, which was why I was segregated from the rest.
